Description
🔹 Product Introduction
The GECMA CHALLENGER 18I-FMO is an industrial display panel designed for demanding control-room, process monitoring, offshore, and hazardous-area applications. It belongs to the CHALLENGER 18 display platform and provides an 18-inch-class industrial visualization interface with a TFT display and SXGA resolution.
The panel is designed for integration into industrial automation systems where clear operator visualization, enclosure protection, and hazardous-area suitability are important. The available technical information identifies a 1280 × 1024 SXGA display, 16-million-color TFT technology, and an IP66/NEMA 4X front panel.
The listed unit is associated with the CPS-1 AC power configuration and accepts 100–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 2 A input. Its marked operating temperature range varies by associated component, with the display assembly specified for approximately -10°C to +60°C.
This display panel is suitable for replacement, system refurbishment, maintenance inventory, and industrial operator-interface applications where the original CHALLENGER platform needs to be maintained.
